This looks to be answered many different times but I can't seem to get it working with my implementation. I am trying to format and limit the data in a sap.m.Input element. I currently have the following:
var ef_Amount = new sap.m.Input({
label: 'Amount',
textAlign: sap.ui.core.TextAlign.Right,
value: {
path: '/amount',
type: 'sap.ui.model.type.Currency'
}
});
The first problem is that it kind of breaks the data binding. When I inspect the raw data (with Fiddler) submitted to the server it is an array like this:
"amount": [1234.25,null]
The server is expecting a single number and as such has issues with the array.
When I use the following, the binding works as desired but no formatting is performed.
var ef_Amount = new sap.m.Input({
label: 'Amount',
textAlign: sap.ui.core.TextAlign.Right,
value: '{/amount}'
});
The second problem is that the data entered is not limited to numbers.
I have tried using sap.m.MaskedInput instead but I don't like the usage of the placeholders because I never know the size of the number to be entered.
And lastly, it would be nice if when focus is placed on the input field, that all formatting is removed and re-formatted again when focus lost.
Should I be looking into doing this with jQuery or even raw Javascript instead?
Thank you for looking.
the array output is a normal one according to documentation. So you need to teach your server to acccept this format or preprocess data before submission;
this type is not intended to limit your data input;
good feature, but ui5 does not support this, because the Type object has no idea about control and it's events like "focus" it only deals with data input-output. So you have to implement this functionality on your own via extending the control or something else.
I would suggest using amount and currency separately. It's likely that user should be allowed to enter only valid currency, so you can use a combobox with the suggestions of the available currencies.
So, after much work and assistance from #Andrii, I managed to get it working. The primary issue was that onfocusout broke the updating of the model and the change event from firing. Simply replacing onfocusout with onsapfocusleave took care of the issues.
The final code in the init method of my custom control:
var me = this;
var numberFormat = sap.ui.core.NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance({maxFractionDigits: 2});
me.addEventDelegate({
onAfterRendering: function() {
// for formatting the figures initially when loaded from the model
me.bindValue({
path: me.getBindingPath('value'),
formatter: function(value) {
return numberFormat.format(value);
}
});
},
onfocusin: function() {
// to remove formatting when the user sets focus to the input field
me.bindValue(me.getBindingPath('value'));
},
onsapfocusleave: function() {
me.bindValue({
path: me.getBindingPath('value'),
formatter: function(value) {
return numberFormat.format(value);
}
});
}
});

I am using EXTJS 4.2.1 and my application has a grid including paging, the grouping summary and the summary feature. I want to override the sum of the summary feature, because it should display the grand total sum of the whole data set and not only for the current displayed page.
Is that possible to override the summary feature to do so?
Thanky you very much for every advice in advance. :-)
Use summaryRenderer in column configuration. It is an undocummented feature of ExtJS allowing you to show custom data in your summary row.
You will have to summarize the data server-side and send them to client where you will access it in the summaryRenderer.
Like so:
columns: {
items: [
{
text: "Column A",
dataIndex: "field_A",
summaryRenderer: function( value, summaryData, dataIndex ) {
var grid = this;
// Get the value here and return it
var result = functionToGetValue( grid );
return result;
}
},
// ...
}
]
The functionToGetValue is the place where you pass the summarization value you sent to your client from server.
How you do that depens on your code. You have access to store via grid.getStore().
It is possible to add the summary data to each record and then simply use store.getAt(0).get( 'summaryValue' ), it is kind of wasteful, but it is simple and it works.
I was trying to asynchronously update a Select field via Memory and ObjectStore. This doesn't work. Setting the data to the Memory object before creating the Select element works fine. Updating the Memory object after creating the Select element doesn't work anymore.
Example code:
require([
"dojo/ready",
"dijit/form/Select",
"dojo/store/Memory",
"dojo/store/Observable",
"dojo/data/ObjectStore",
'dojo/domReady!'
], function(ready, Select, Memory, Observable, ObjectStore, dom){
ready(function() {
var mymem = new Memory();
var myobs = new Observable(mymem);
var mystore = new ObjectStore({ objectStore: myobs });
/* updating memory here works :) */
//mymem.setData([ { id: 2, label: 'qwertz2' }, { id: 3, label: 'qwertz3' } ]);
var s = new Select({
store: mystore
}, 'appsAdminQueueContainer');
s.startup();
/* updating memory here doesn't work :( */
mymem.setData([ { id: 2, label: 'qwertz2' }, { id: 3, label: 'qwertz3' } ]);
});
}
);
Real working example: https://jsfiddle.net/mirQ/ra0dqb63/5/
Is this a bug or is there a solution to be able to update the content of the Select field after creating it - without having to access the Select field directly?
UPDATE
Thank you for your response.
The use of dojo/ready was just a missed leftover while simplifying my code, sorry.
That the use of the ObjectStore is not necessary was not clear to me. Thanks for clearing up.
Okay, the real problem seems to be indeed the last point. I think I have to extend my description.
Updated/extended problem description:
I'm using a grid. At first I was using dojox/grid/DataGrid, but then I switched to dgrid. Everything works well, but I want to use dijit.form.Select as editor for one column. This works also well if the data is static. But in one column I have to read dynamic data from the server. This data comes in JSON format.
First I tried to solve this with the use of dojo/data/ItemFileReadStore - that worked. But it's deprecated and I need to implement a formatter for that column that has to have access to the same JSON data read from the server. I don't have the code for that solution anymore, but it didn't work. I wasn't able to successfully query the data from within the formatter function.
Then I switched to Memory and xhr. The response from the server comes after the Memory object is created (and, as it seems, after creating the Select), so I had to use setData to bring my loaded data in the store. And because the Select is only an editor of a grid, I don't have access to the object itself to be able to re-set the store after updating the data.
I hope my extended description makes my real problem a bit clearer. Thanks in advance for your help!

This works for me:
require([
'dijit/form/Select',
'dojo/store/Memory',
'dojo/store/Observable',
], function (Select, Memory, Observable) {
var mymem = new Memory({
data: [{
id: 2,
label: 'qwertz2'
}, {
id: 3,
label: 'qwertz3'
}]
});
var myobs = new Observable(mymem);
var s = new Select({
labelAttr: 'label',
store: myobs
}, 'appsAdminQueueContainer');
s.startup();
myobs.add({ id: 4, label: 'qwerty' });
});
Notable changes:
There's no reason to use dojo/ready in this code. The require callback already waits for modules to load, and as long as this script is at the bottom of the body, there's no need to wait for the DOM to load, either.
There's no need to use a dojo/data store adapter. dijit/form/Select supports dojo/store as well (as of 1.8 if I recall correctly). This might also have been why observation wasn't working. The only difference is labelAttr must be specified on the Select since dojo/store has no concept of a label property.
(Edit) now that I re-read the question, I notice you are calling setData. setData does not fire observers. setData completely resets the store's data, and to reflect that, you would need to actually reset the store on the select entirely (which requires calling setStore, not set('store', ...), if you are using 1.9 or earlier, because Select was never updated properly to support the set API until 1.10).
(Edit #2) Given that the primary reason you are calling setData is due to creating the store before actually having data for it, your case would probably be greatly simplified by using the RequestMemory store implementation from dojo-smore. It basically re-adds the url support that dojo/data/ItemFileReadStore had but dojo/store/Memory didn't.
I am using jQrid version 3.8.1 with inline editing and each row in the grid has several dropdown lists to populate. When the user edits the row, I need to do an AJAX query to get the values for each of these lists. I've seen this post regarding how to do that. It appears that the dataUrl and buildSelect features are the standard answer here. There are a few issues I can't figure out though:
The row the user is editing has a value that must be passed into the dataUrl value. For example, say each row contains a field called "SpecialValue" and that for row 1, SpecialValue = 100. The dataUrl field for row 1 would be "http://my.services.com?SpecialValue=100". How do I do that?
Each row in the grid has about 10 select boxes that need to be populated. For efficiency reasons, I don't want to make 10 separate AJAX calls. It would be much better to make one call to get all the data, split it up, and fill each select box accordingly. Is that possible? I tried doing this inside onSelectRow but the grid ended up ignoring the values I put in there (I'm guessing do the ordering of the events that fire when you edit a row).
Edit:
After reading Oleg's answers and working on it more, it's clear to me that using dataUrl and buildSelect are not going to work well for me. The version of jqGrid I'm using doesn't support using dataUrl the way I would need. And even if it did I don't want to send multiple separate requests for each dropdown list.
I've decided to do one request when gridComplete fires to pull all the data needed for all dropdown lists into a single JSON structure. Then when the user selects a row to do inline editing, I will populate each list in the row from that JSON structure (the code below uses the getSelectValuesFromJSON() function for that--I don't give its definition but you can imaging it looks through the structure and gets an appropriate list of values to but in the list box).
I have a few candidate solutions but I'm not 100% happy with either one.
Solution 1:
Inside onSelectRow, I call editRow overriding the on oneditfunc to get the data out of the grid that I need. Assume that the value in Field1 is required to get the values to be put into the list in Field2.
onSelectRow: function (index, status, e) {
jQuery('#my_grid').jqGrid('editRow', index, true, function(rowId) {
var f1Val = $('#my_grid').jqGrid('getCell', index, 'Field1');
var selectVals = getSelectValuesFromJSON(f1Val); //gets data out of previously loaded JSON structure
var select = $('#my_grid').find('tr[id="' + index + '"] td[aria-describedby="my_grid_Field2"] select');
_.each(selectVals, function(selectVal) {
$(select).append($("<option></option>").attr("value", selectVal).text(selectVal));
});
});
}
This works but I'm hesitant about the line
var select = $('#my_grid').find('tr[id="' + index + '"] td[aria-describedby="my_grid_Field2"] select');
which relies on this aria-describedby attribute that I don't know much about. Seems hacky and brittle.
Solution 2:
Make use of beforeSelectRow to dynamically change the model of the Field2 column when the user selects a row.
beforeSelectRow: function(index, e) {
var f1Val = getGridCellValue('#my_grid', index, 'Field1');
var values = getSelectValuesFromJSON(f1Val); //gets data out of previously loaded JSON structure
var valStr = "";
_.each(values, function(value) {
valStr += value + ":" + value + ";"
});
jQuery('#grid_pipes').setColProp('Field2', { editoptions: { value: valStr } });
return true;
}
This also works but I'm not sure about whether or not this is really a good idea. Is it valid to dynamically change the model of a column like that? What if the user has several rows selected at the same time? Isn't there only one model for a column? What would that mean?
To answer some of Oleg's questions, the dataType has been set to a function that uses $.ajax to post data to the server. I think I read that's not the recommended approach anymore. I inherited this code so I'm not sure why it was done that way but it probably won't change unless there is a really compelling reason.
The loadonce boolean is not specified so I guess that means it defaults to false.
Here is an abbreviated version of the column model (nothing terribly out of the ordinary):
colModel: [
{ name: 'PK', index: 'PK', hidden: true, editable: true, sortable: true, search: true },
{ name: 'Field1', index: 'Field1', hidden: true, editable: true, sortable: true, search: true },
{ name: 'Field2', index: 'Field2', sortable: false, editable: true, search: false, edittype: "select", editoptions: {} },
{ name: 'Field3', index: 'Field3', sortable: false, editable: true, search: false, edittype: "select", editoptions: {} },
...
]
You don't wrote which version of jqGrid you use currently, but dataUrl can be defined as callback function with (rowid, value, name) parameters, which have to return the URL which you can build dynamically based on the information. The feature exist starting with v4.5.3 (see the line). You can use getCell, getRowData or getLocalRow inside of the callback to get the data from another columns of the row. Thus you can solve your first problem relatively easy.
You second question seems to me absolutely independent from the first one. It's better to separate such questions in different posts to allow the searching engine better to index the information and so to help other people to find it.
There are no simple way how to solve the second problem, but one can sure suggest a solution, but one have to know much more details what you do and how you do. How you start inline editing (do you use inlineNav, formatter: "actions" or you call editRow directly)? Which version of jqGrid (till version 4.7), free jqGrid or Guriddo jqGrid JS you use? How the columns with selects are defined in colModel? Which datatype you use and whether loadonce: true you use? I recommend you to post separate question with the information.
UPDATE: If you have to use old version of jqGrid then you can't generate dataUrl full dynamically, but because you need to add only SpecialValue=100" part to the URL you can follow the trick which I described in many my old answers (the first one was probably here, but the choice on property names which asked the user could be misunderstood). You can use ajaxSelectOptions.data which will define the data parameters of jQuery.ajax request. The problem only that you can define only one ajaxSelectOptions.data property. So you can add the following jqGrid option:
ajaxSelectOptions: {
data: {
SpecialValue: function () {
var rowid = $myGrid.jqGrid("getGridParam", "selrow");
return $myGrid.jqGrid("getCell", rowid, "SpecialValue");
}
}
}
($myGrid is something like $("#grid"))
UPDATED: You used unknown functions getSelectValuesFromJSON, getLookupValuesFromJSON in the updated part of your question. Both of there seems to use synchronous Ajax request which is not good. Moreover you set editoptions.value for only one Field2 instead of setting all selects.
onSelectRow: function (rowid) {
var $myGrid = $(this);
$.ajax({
url: "someUrl",
dataType: "json";
data: {
specialValue: $myGrid.jqGrid("getCell", rowid, "Field1")
},
success: function (data) {
// for example response data have format:
// { "Field2": ["v1", "v2", ...], "Field3": ["v3", "v4", ...] }
var filed, str;
for (filed in data) {
if (data.hasOwnProperty(filed)) {
str = $.map(data[filed], function (item) {
return item + ":" + item
}).join(";");
$myGrid.jqGrid("setColProp", filed, {
editoptions: {
value: str
}
});
}
}
$myGrid.jqGrid("editRow", rowid, true);
}
});
}
Nevertheless the "Solution 2" is more close to what I would recommend you. It's not really important whether to use onSelectRow or beforeSelectRow. You can make asynchronous Ajax request to the server which returns information for all select which you need. After you get the response from the server (inside of success callback) you can set editoptions.value for all selects and only then you can start editRow. In the way you will be sure that editing of the line will use row specific options in all select.
Some additional remarks. I recommend you to verify gridview: true option in the grid. Additionally I suspect that you fill the grid in not full correct way because you have hidden PK column and you use index instead of rowid as the first parameter of beforeSelectRow and onSelectRow. It's very important to understand that the current implementation of jqGrid always assign id attribute on every row (<tr> element) of the grid. So you have to provide id information in every item of input data. If you want to display the id information to the user (and so to have column in colModel with the primary key) then you should just include key: true property in the column definition. For example you can add key: true to the definition of PK column and so you will have rowid (or index in your case) with the same value like PK. It simplify many parts of code. For example jqGrid send id parameter in the editing request to the server. It's practical to have PK in the request. Moreover if you use repeatitems: false format of jsonReader the you can include id: "PK" in the jsonReader instead of having hidden PK column. It informs jqGrid to get rowid from PK. jqGrid will save PK in id attribute of <tr> and you will don't need to have additional <td style="display:none"> with the same information in the grid.
The last remark. I would strictly recommend you to update the retro version jqGrid 3.8.1 to some more recent version, for example to free jqGrid. Even if you would use no features (like Font Awesome for example) you will have performance advantages, and the look of modern web browsers will looks much better. You should understand the jqGrid 3.8.1 was tested with old (and slow jQuery 1.4.2). The version used with Internet Explorer 8 as the latest IE version (IE9 was published later in March 2011) and it's more oriented on IE6/IE7. The look in modern Chrome/Firefox/Safari can be bad. Is it what you want?
i want to write a dojo code where upon a button click i want to read a .csv file and display the .csv file in a datagrid using Dojo. Can anyone please help me with this?
Your best try is to retrieve the data using the dojo/request/xhr module, with it you can retrieve an external CSV file. For example:
require(["dojo/request/xhr"], function(xhr) {
xhr.get("myfile.csv", {
handleAs: "text"
}).then(function(data) {
// Use data
});
});
Well, now you have the data as a string in your data parameter, what you now need to do is parse that string. The easiest way is to split your string on each enter, for example:
var lines = data.split(/\r?\n/);
The \r is optional (depends on the system you're using), but now you have each line seperated in an array element in lines. The next step is to retrieve each seperate value, for example by doing:
require(["dojo/_base/array"], function(array) {
/** Rest of code */
array.forEach(lines, function(line) {
var cells = line.split(',');
});
});
Then you have your data splitted by each comma. The next step is that you have to change it to a format that the dojox/grid/DataGrid can read. This means that you will probably convert the first line of your CSV content to your headers (if they contain headers) and the rest of the data to objects (in stead of arrays of strings).
You can get the first line with:
var headers = lines[0].split(',');
And the rest of the data with:
var otherData = lines.splice(1);
Now you should carefully read the documentation #MiBrock gave you, and with it you can transform the simple array of strings to the correct format.
The headers should become an array of objects like this:
[{ name: "display name", field: "field name" }, { /** other objects */ }]
I did that by doing:
array.map(headers, function(header) {
return {
field: header,
name: header
};
});
This will actually convert [ "a", "b" ] to:
[{ field: "a", name: "a" }, { field: "b", name: "b" }]
Now you need to convert all other lines to objects containing a field with name a and a field with name b, you can do that using:
array.map(otherData, function(line) {
var cells = line.split(','), obj = {};
array.forEach(cells, function(cell, idx) {
obj[headers[idx]] = cell;
});
return obj:
});
This will actually retrieve the fieldname by retrieving the corresponding header value and output it as a single object.
Now you can put it in a grid, look at #MiBrock's answer for more details about how to do that. The final result would look a bit like this JSFiddle.
Note: Next time you encounter a problem you can't solve, handle the parts you actually can solve first and then ask a question about the other parts. I mean, it's hard to believe that you can actually not solve any of this by yourself. You should try and learn it by yourself first.
The dojo-smore project includes a CSV object store that loads data from CSV into an in-memory store which can then be used with any component that supports object stores, like dgrid. You shouldn’t try to do it yourself, like Dimitri M suggested, and you shouldn’t use the dojox grids, which are deprecated.
You can use dojox.data.CsvStore to read a CSV store and use it in a data grid.
Have a look here : http://dojotoolkit.org/reference-guide/1.8/dojox/grid/index.html#dojox-grid-index
and here: http://dojotoolkit.org/documentation/tutorials/1.9/populating_datagrid/
This should help you to start with your Programming.

I'm trying to use a dijit.form.Select as the editor for my dijit.InlineEditBox. Two problems / unexpected behavior seem to occur:
Inconsistently, the InLineEditBox doesn't have the initial value set as selected
Consistently, after selecting a choice, the value that should be hidden is shown instead of the label.
The width isn't set to 130px
Here's working code: http://jsfiddle.net/mimercha/Vuet8/7/
The jist
<span dojoType="dijit.InlineEditBox" editor="dijit.form.Select"
editorParams="{
options: [
{label:'None',value:'none'},
{label:'Student',value:'stu'},
{label:'Professor',value:'prof',selected:true},
],
style:'width:1000px;',
}"
editorStyle="width: 1000px;"
>
</span>
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Okay, after a few MORE hours struggling with the mess that is dijit.InlineEditBox, I think I have the solution to the remaining issue (#2).
EDIT: My first solution to #2 is still flawed; the implementation at http://jsfiddle.net/kfranqueiro/Vuet8/10/ will never return the actual internal value when get('value') is called.
EDIT #2: I've revamped the solution so that value still retains the real (hidden) value, keeping displayedValue separate. See if this works better:
http://jsfiddle.net/kfranqueiro/Vuet8/13/
First, to recap for those who weren't on IRC:
Issue #1 was happening due to value not being properly set as a top-level property of the InlineEditBox itself; it didn't pick it up properly from the wrapped widget.
Issue #3 was happening due to some pretty crazy logic that InlineEditBox executes to try to resolve styles. Turns out though that InlineEditBox makes setting width particularly easy by also exposing it as a top-level numeric attribute. (Though IINM you can also specify a percentage as a string e.g. "50%")
Now, issue #2...that was the killer. The problem is, while InlineEditBox seems to have some logic to account for widgets that have a displayedValue attribute, that logic is sometimes wrong (it expects a displayedValue property to actually exist on the widget, which isn't necessarily the case), and other times missing entirely (when the InlineEditBox initializes). I've worked around those as best I could in my own dojo.declared extensions to InlineEditBox and the internal widget it uses, _InlineEditor - since generally it's a good idea to leave the original distribution untouched.
It's not pretty (neither is the underlying code I dug through to understand and come up with this), but it seems to be doing its job.
But man, this was rather interesting. And potentially pertinent to my interests as well, as we have used this widget in our UIs as well, and will be using it more in the future.
Let me know if anything backfires.
hm...
<span dojoType="dijit.InlineEditBox" editor="dijit.form.Select"
editorParams="{
options: [
{label:'None',value:'none'},
{label:'Student',value:'stu'},
{label:'Professor',value:'prof',selected:true},**<<<<** and this comma is for?
],
style:'width:1000px;',**<<<<** and this comma is for?
}"
editorStyle="width: 1000px;"
>
</span>
Also, when using dijit.form.Select, selected value is not attr "selected" but value.
And if you enter prof inside <span ...blah > prof </span> than your proper selected option will be selected ;)
Dijit select checks for VALUE, not attr.
This may be fixed in recent Dojo - see http://bugs.dojotoolkit.org/ticket/15141 - but using 1.7.3 I found this worked:
In my app directory, at the same level as dojo, dijit and dojox, I created a file InlineSelectBox.js which extends InlineEditBox with code to set the HTML on the associated domNode from the value of the Dijit, and which wires up that code to the onChange() event:
define(["dijit/InlineEditBox",
"dijit/form/Select",
"dojo/on",
"dojo/_base/declare",
"dojo/_base/array"
],
function(InlineEditBox, Select, on, declare, array){
return declare(InlineEditBox, {
_setLabel: function() {
array.some(this.editorParams.options, function(option, i){
if (option.value == this.value) {
this.domNode.innerHTML = option.label;
return true;
}
return false;
}, this);
},
postMixInProperties: function(){
this.inherited(arguments);
this.connect(this, "onChange", "_setLabel");
},
postCreate: function(){
this.inherited(arguments);
this._setLabel();
}
});
});
Then, in my view script:
require(["dojo/ready",
"app/InlineSelectBox",
"dijit/form/Select"
],
function(ready, InlineSelectBox, Select){
ready(function(){
// Add code to set the options array
var options = [];
// Add code to set the initial value
var initialValue = '';
var inlineSelect = new InlineSelectBox({
editor: Select,
editorParams: {options: options},
autoSave: true,
value: initialValue
}, "domNodeToAttachTo");
});
});
I was dealing with this situation a few months ago, and not finding a resolution i made my own algorithm.
I put a div with an event on Onclick that build programatically a Filtering Select on that div with the store i want to use.
function create(id,value){
var name = dojo.byId(id).innerHTML;
dojo.byId(id).parentNode.innerHTML = '<div id="select"></div>';
new dijit.form.FilteringSelect({
store: store,
autoComplete: true,
invalidMessage:"Invalid Selection",
style: "width: 80px;",
onBlur: function(){ },
onChange: function(){ },
required: true,
value: value,
disabled: false,
searchAttr: "name",
id: "status"+id,
name: "status"
},"select");
dijit.byId('status'+id).focus();
}
I used the onBlur event to destroy the widget and the onchange to save by xhr the new value.
The focus is below because the onBlur was not working properly.
note: the function is not complete.
